Refresh rate Problem

Hi Robert,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Screen refresh rate is the rate at which the data displayed on screen is refreshed; it may be an image or some text document. Most of the users would like to set it to a higher rate but this also depends on the capacity of graphic
card and monitors. If the refresh rate is slow, the images on the display looks as flickering to the user eye and makes it uncomfortable to work.

Nowadays the latest monitors available in market will have minimum 60 Hz of refresh rate and it is very good option to set it to 70 Hz if you your monitor is compatible. Normally a high performance or quality monitors can reach
120 Hz of refresh rate. So I would suggest you to set your monitor refresh rate as higher as possible, below given steps describes how to access this feature on your Windows 8.1/10 PC.

• The default refresh rate setting is 60 Hertz (HZ); however, your monitor may support a higher setting. Check your manufacturer's documentation for information about the settings that your monitor supports.
• If you use a higher refresh rate, you can reduce the rate that your screen flickers; however, if you specify a refresh rate that is too high for your monitor, your screen may become unusable and your hardware may be damaged.
• Changes to the refresh rate affect all users that log on to the computer.

I would, as of now, suggest you to visit the computer manufacturer's support website and install the latest display and chipset drivers available for the latest operating system (currently it would be 8.1 in the list).

Hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to reply in case you face any other issues with Windows in future.

 

Issues Setting/Overclocking Monitor Refresh Rates


I'm having issues keeping my custom overclocked monitor refresh rates to stick. I run 96hz on my monitor fine in Windows 7 and 8. The issue is Nvidia Control Panel and Windows are saying my monitor is running at a custom 96hz. Unforunately UFO Test: <div id="title">Multiple Framerates</div> is saying otherwise. It's weird because Edge says I am running at 96 FPS on that UFO test, while Firefox is saying I'm running at 60 FPS. I don't see how they can be reporting 2 different things.

The odd thing is that sometimes after a restart the custom refresh rate will stick. Other times I lose it and it goes back to 60hz. I wonder if this is a NVidia control panel issue. I tried using Custom Refresh Utility but no dice either. Thanks.

 

Monitor refresh rate

Hi Maypher

My name is Dayarys I am an independent advisor I will try to help you. Please follow the steps below :

Click on the Windows logo corner and Open Settings (gear icon).

Click on System.

Click on Display.

Click the Advanced display settings link.

Click the Display adapter properties for Display 1

Click the Monitor tab.

Under "Monitor Settings," use the drop-down menu to select the refresh rate you wish.

If you already did that like you showing, keep in mind that the refresh rates you can select will always depend on the monitor, graphics adapter, and resolution your device is using.

Your monitor show the 144hz and 60hz option but doest mean that it works at an intermediate rate.

You can try to update your graphic card by your laptop manufacturer model or change your resolution, but if you don't have the option no one configuration or software can change it. Sorry to give you bad news.

Regards Dayarys
